TERMS OF USE

By using eatorbeat.com ("the site"), you agree to the following terms.

What this site provides

EatOrBeat reproduces public restaurant health-inspection records from city and state health departments. Pages display the agency's own result, grade, score, or violation tier in the source vocabulary, alongside arithmetic facts about the record (counts, dates, totals). EatOrBeat reports records and does not rate restaurants. Records on the site are not official government ratings, endorsements, or recommendations.

Data accuracy

EatOrBeat reproduces the source records as the underlying agency publishes them. Records reflect official inspection findings at the time of each inspection. Conditions at any establishment may have changed since the most recent inspection on file. Every detail page shows the "records current as of" date for its market. If you believe we reproduced a record incorrectly, contact corrections@eatorbeat.com; if the underlying agency record is wrong, contact the issuing agency.

Not professional advice

Nothing on this site constitutes health, safety, legal, or professional advice. The records reproduced here are one input among many; use them alongside your own judgment, the source agency's record, and any direct experience you have.

Business names and identifiers

Restaurant names, license numbers, addresses, neighborhoods, and inspection findings reproduced on the site come from the source agency's public record. Business names are used to identify the establishment to which the public inspection record applies. Inclusion on the site is not a commercial endorsement and does not imply any business relationship between EatOrBeat and the establishment.

Intellectual property

The underlying inspection data is public record from the issuing agencies. Page templates, site design, the "EatOrBeat" name and logo, and other site-original work are EatOrBeat's; they may not be reproduced without permission.

Corrections

EatOrBeat publishes a corrections process for errors in our reproduction of a public record. We review reports and update affected pages on the next weekly rebuild, or sooner for material errors. EatOrBeat cannot change the underlying agency record — only the site's reproduction of it.

Limitation of liability

EatOrBeat is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. EatOrBeat is not liable for any damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on the records reproduced here, including health outcomes, business losses, or decisions made based on records or arithmetic facts displayed on this site.

Third-party links and ads

The site contains links to third-party websites — including each market's source dataset — and may display advertisements from third-party networks. EatOrBeat is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or accuracy of any third-party sites or services.

Changes to these terms

EatOrBeat may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
